Take a shot of vodka Here's the bad breath cure you've probably never tried: Order a cocktail with vodka. "Vodka kills bacteria that causes bad breath," says Irwin Smigel, DDS, creator of SuperSmile, Just make sure to avoid the sugary mixers, which will only aggravate your bad breath.

rinse with 50/50 peroxide and water, eat a raw apple, brush with baking soda, oil pull (swill) with coconut oil, popcorn, and believe it or not, brush with the contents of an activated charcoal capsule, and brush off.

I knew about eating cheese, but I had no idea about eating strawberries. I love Super Smile. Using Vaseline takes me back to my days of being a majorette, when we would apply to our teeth so that we could smile continually.
